[question] keyframe shortcuts?

i'm working on this animation which style-wise is like a video game. the hero walks through rooms, and punches bad guys. i want to have it so every punch is the same, just as if it was from a game.
is there a way to easily repeat keyframes? like if i keyframe the hero's joints to perform a "punch" action. if he has to punch several times throughout the animation, what's the best way to repeat the punch action?
i know copying and pasting the frames will work, or even only having one "punch" action and changing the camera so it appears to be different, but is there a shortcut like a blend shape action, or using character sets to more easily assign and repeat actions?
